You have not fulfilled every duty un less you h-ivo fulfilled that of being pleasant. -Charles Butei Underwood Standard Typewriter A LEADER The principal of construction in the Underwood was found first in the Underwood, and every typewriter seeking business in the same field with the Underwood which has been put on the market since the advent of the Under wood, has been an imitation of, and in general appearance like, the Underwood. The last "Blind" advocates of importance have now fallen into line, and there is not to-day a single "blind writing" typewriter actively on this market. Recall all the arguments you have heard in past years by Underwood opposition, and you will realize what an advance agent of progress the Underwood has been; then bear in mind that the Underwood was the first fully "visible," has had tim to develope and improve, and is to-day the most perfect typewriter made. "The Machine You Will Eventually Buy" GATHERING RUBBER. The Sap Is Coagulated by the Action f Pungent Smote. The Industry of collecting and pre paring rubber-Is carried on extensively in the valley of the Amazon. There are districts of many square miles owned and operated by one person. The rub ber trees are scattered more or less plentifully among other trees that yield no profit as yet When one has secured a large tract of forest land for the Industry he puts up a rough shelter upon it and en gages Indian naUves of the neighbor hood to aid him in the work. Early in the morning they start out to make the rounds of the estate, for they must get back to the riverside before the heat of the day becomes too great They tap the trees, attach little tin cups to catch the sap and take home whatever sap may be collected. The sap of the rubber tree is a white liquid of the consistency of goat's milk. It is necessary that it be converted into a solid. This is effected by the action of. a pungent smoke that coagu lates or curdles the milky fluid. For this use the seeds of two different kinds of palm are employed. The seeds are put in an earthen Jar which has a narrow neck, the bottom of which is perforated with a number of square holes. In this the palm nuts are burned. The holes in the bottom of the Jar admit a draft and cause a dense smoke to issue from the neck. The operator takes a paddle similar to that with which he paddles his ca noe and holds the blade of it over the Jar. Upon It he pours the milky Juice, cup by cup, all the time turning the blade so as to bring all parts of it into the smoke. The fluid is instantly fixed and adheres to the wood or to the rub ber already formed. This process is continued until a solid lump is formed that will perhaps weigh sixteen pounds. When the lump has grown large enough for handling a slit is cut in it and the blade Is drawn out A mass of rubber is left ready for ex portation. It is, the smoke used in coagulating the sap that gives crude rubber the dark appearance familiar to every one. Natives who collect rubber have, cu riously enough, little use for the ar ticle. They do, however, devise play things for their children by pouring the sap into clay molds of birds, fishes, eta, and then crushing the clay and removing it New York Press. TrUlNING SEALS. These Dexterous Animals Easfl Taught to Perform Tricks. "The cardinal principle in training animals," says an animal trainer, "ii not to attempt to make an animal de anything contrary to the nature of Iti particular species. To be successful a trainer must know enough about th habits of the animals he has undci training to fit the tricks he would teach them to their natural bent "The seal Is very easily taught Ton begin with one seal, some small pieces of fish and a string. You let the seal sit on his pedestal, something he likes to do by nature; then you throw hliu one of the pieces of fish, and he natu rally and easily catches it Next you tie a piece of fish on the end of yout string and swing It toward the seal He catches this, too, and you keep moving away from him and swinging the fish to him from an increasing dis tance. Now yon are ready to begin with the hat or cornucopia. You put a piece of fish in the bottom of it and toss it to the seal. The seal Is dex terous by nature, and his nose, quickly detecting the fish In the Up of th cone, seeks it out The cone catches on his snout and he bites out the fish ami tosses the cone aside. Before long he comes to associate the cone with fish, and he will catch any number of sim ilar ones and toss them aside when Ik falls to find what he wants. "Balancing the big rubber ball it based on the same principle. The ball is soaked In fishy brine and thrown tc the seal. Ho gets the odor and tries his best to get into the ball and find what he Is after. This results In his balancing the ball on his nose, a feat tc which his supple neck and his natural feeding habits are nil adapted, and then he gets his piece of tish as a prize."

The Scandinavian Eddas the Most Re cent of the Seven. The world has seven Bibles. The are the Koran of the Mohammedans the Eddas of the Scandinavians, the Trlpltaka of the Buddhists, the Five Kings of the Chinese, the Three Veda.. of the Hindus, the Zendavesta and the Scriptures of the Christians. The Koran Is not older than the sev enth century of our era. It is a com pound of quotations from the Old and New Testaments, the Talmud and the gospel of St Barnabas. The Eddas of the Scandinavians were published In the eleventh century and are the most recent of these seven Bibles. The Bud dhists Trlpltaka contain sublime mor als and pure inspirations. Their au thor lived and died In the seventh cen tury before Christ. The sacred writings of the Chinese are called the Five Kings, "kin:;" meaning web of cloth or the warp that keeps the threads in their places. They contain the choicest sayings of the best ages on the ethicopolltical duties of life. These sayings cannot be traced to a period higher than the eleventh century B. C. The Three Vedas are the most ancient books of the Hindus, and it Is the opinion of great scholars that they ore older than the eleventh century B. C. The Zendavesta of the Persians Is the grandest of all the sacred books next to the Bible. Zoroaster, whose sayings it contains, was born in the twelfth century B. C New York Iler-sid.

Medical Press and Circular. History In Toys. The history of the world Is crystal lized In the children's toys. Each great war leaves soldiers in the nursery cup board dressed correctly to a strap and button. This h:is always been so. As each successive age In the world's his tory 1ms gone by the weapons of that age have passed to the hands of the boys as toys. There are in our great museums miniature crossbows, spears and shields. Toy armor as finely in laid and engraved as any real nccou terments is occasionally to be seen, and old prints show the boys playing with such figures.

North Parks has bought the Bro ken Bow Republican and took pos session last Saturday. Mr. Parks Is a hard worker, a vigorous writer and withal a resourceful newspaper man. His worst fault from a newspaper point of view is his wanderlust, but this he declares he has outgrown now and he will settle down In Bro ken Bow and stick to his Job till the cows come home. With the large field before him he surely ought to make good In Custer county. Any way we are sure he will improve the appearance of the Republican and will bring it to the front rank. Here is hoping that he will succeed. Ord Quiz. or for the syndicates that contr A , them or from whom thoy receho their principal sustenance.
